Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle for Nintendo 3DS Coming to North America

Master the Tenkai Energy Within and Champion the Fate of Two Worlds.

SAN JOSE, Calif. – (January 30, 2014) - NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. today announced that TENKAI KNIGHTS: Brave Battle for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system will be arriving in the Americas in summer 2014. Based on the animated action TV series currently broadcasting on Cartoon Network and the innovative line of shapeshifting construction bricks by Spin Master Ltd., TENKAI KNIGHTS: Brave Battle offers robot action gameplay that immerses players into the world of Quarton as the legendary and powerful Tenkai Knights fight tirelessly to stop the evil Vilius and his army of shapeshifting robots.

Eons ago, Quarton was a peaceful planet protected by The Corekai, valiant fighters who were sworn to protect the planet’s most valuable resource—Tenkai Energy. However, The Corekai were overrun by The Corrupted, an evil army led by the ruthless warlord Vilius, leaving Quarton ravaged by centuries of war and destruction. Before Vilius delivered his final crushing blow, four valiant heroes known as the Tenkai Knights emerged to save the planet from Vilius’ grasp. With peace restored, the Corekai regrouped but the four Tenkai Knights were never to be seen again. Thousands of years later, Vilius has returned more powerful than ever with an even more malicious plot to not only seize control over Quarton but take over the planet Earth as well; will the Tenkai Knights prevail once again?

Players will step into the role of one of the four Tenkai Knight heroes and engage in 2D robot combat in either the mission-based Story mode to live the Tenkai Knight experience or compete against up to three friends in the Versus mode to determine who is the strongest. In order to become the most powerful hero, players will be able to customize their robot’s parts, enter various unit modes to support allies in battle, and modify their battle styles to exploit their enemy’s weaknesses. With the fate of two worlds in their hands, players must master their Tenkai powers, dive into the thick of battle and defeat Vilius and The Corrupted once and for all!

TENKAI KNIGHTS: Brave Battle for the Nintendo 3DS is slated for release in the Americas in summer 2014.
